Anyone on TCG have a EVA sensor?

[Eagle]

Looking to diagnose some vibrations in a vehicle. If anyone has one, I'd love to take a quick ride with it.

Thanks for any assistance!

I HAVE AN EVA 2
BUT I IGHT BE ABLE TO HELP YOU WITHOUT IT.... WHAT IS IT DOING?

 

[Eagle]

2012 suburban... vibrating at 61mph. They are troubleshooting it at the dealer and claiming noting is wrong with it.

 

[Eagle]

An audible vibration at that... i guess they claim they ran an Eva sensor on it and detected nothing. No way.

Road force those wheels and tires.

From the Land before Time desk:

Not very scientific and really old school but you can try rotating or swapping the tires and seeing if there's a difference in ride or vibration. Ideally, you have a full size spare and replace one tire at a time. If there's no change, it eliminates the wheels and tires from the equation.

Also Dan that b&b auto in Mchenry has a brand new road force machine and will balance them for cheap. Ask for Phil the owner. It's like $15 a tire.

 

[Eagle]

The tires are new and they've balanced and roasted the wheel/tires 2x.

It's in the trans or the drive shaft, imo.

 

[Flyn]

Good luck with the diagnosis. As I'm sure you already know, it's no fun tracking down vibration.

 

[Eagle]

Honestly, it's likely ujoints. OD or not, you can feel it. The only thing that has me think trans is the shutter it does sometimes before shifting our unlocking the TC.

 

[Stink Star]

I'm 90% sure it's the driveshaft. Likely the u joints.

 

[Eagle]

Agreed...
